Yep, just doing some research and looking for some good labels that have a deep subtle tech-house sound to them. Been listening to a few Kompakt compilations recently and have fallen in love with the sound - this, coming from a joof/psytrance/psyprog fanboy.
Klik Records has a nice selection too.
I especially like the deep japanese techhouse style from quite a number of japanese producers: hiroshi watanabe [kaito], satoshi fumi, takayuki higo, susumu yokota and hideo kobayashi [nagano's kitchen].
So yeah, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I havent touched my DJ equipment for a couple of months ~ not much good psy stuff around to motivate me but it looks like this sort of sound may well do so! :toothless
cheers. |

Watanabe and Fumi being my favs out of those.
If you haven't heard these check out
Hiroshi Watanabe - Genesis (CD Album from 06)
Satoshi Fumi - Treasure EP
Satoshi Fumi pres Elektron - Loop 4 (Seedmaster is awesome)
Joshua Collins - LILO (Satoshi Fumi's Kaleidoscope Mix) |

You are probably more in the warm Deep "Detroitesque" Techno/Tech-House
sound, not necessarily in the more stripped-down minimal-techno sound of Kompakt. For Kompakt-stuff (and style) try the following albums (if you haven't already):
The Field- "From Here We Go Sublime"
Gui Borrato- "Chromophobia"
SCSI-9 - "The Line Of Nine" (these has the more "warmer deep" elements as well,but still, it is quite glitchy and minimalistic)
Isolee - "We Are Monster" ( it is considered a monument in minimalistic and glitchy techno/ tech-house. I personally never liked this sound but you can give it a go!)
But i think that you definitelly gonna like these: (these are both new and older albums to get an idea)
Vince Watson - "The eMotion Sequence" (melodic and layered, warm, deep-techno. MUST listen.)
Vince Watson - "Moments in Time" (older album but still very good lush-techno music.)
Joris Voorn - "From A Deep Place" (if you don't already know this...)
Claro Intelecto- "Metanarrative" (deep and melodic techno, with an experimental IDM edge. Excellent album)
Aril Brikha - "Ex-Machina" (new deep-techno album by Aril Brikha has some old-school trance elements as well. Famous though)
John Beltran - "Ten Days of Blue" (classic melodic and ambient techno masterpiece. Old but excellent! What can i say, my favorite techno album.)
Funk D'Void- "Dos" (second album by Funk D'Void, and an excellent album it is. Very deep and lush, with a "tech-house" edge)
Funk D'Void - "Volume Freak" (third album by this guy. Following from the previous album, this is even more melodic and "full".)
Sterac - "Secret Life Of Machines" (STEve RAChmad's techno masterpiece, and a techno masterpiece in general!)
Alex Smoke- "Incommunicado" (an excellent experimental melodic techno album, mashing IDM, Detroit techno, electro-Italo-disco, ambient and minimalism.)
Stacey Pullen - "The Theory Of" (fantastic album. Verry trippy and deep).
Carl Craig - "Landcruising" (the Detroit-Techno master's deep masterpiece.)
There are probably more, but start with these ones! |

Plus:
Circulation - "Colours-1" (I always forget this. Absolutely amazing melodic techno/tech-house, but VERY hard to find these days. Second favorite after John Beltran!) |

Ive got that, im surprised Circulation doesnt get more love here at TA, they seem to get lost through the cracks. They have a lot of great well aging stuff. |
